Question for the parents out there. If your SO had a particularly ****** day at work and is taking it out unnecessarily on your kid, do you intervene, wait til it's over and discuss it later, or let it go and hope they apologize to your kid for snapping?
We always have each other's back for discipline, but my wife was getting a little snippy tonight and I could see it was bugging my daughter. I'm fine if she vents on me. I shrug it off.

Yeah, but a few years earlier...before the actual casino, just the riverboat and the doggies.
I wouldn't intervene immediately, but if you can get her off to the side...that way you're giving her an out and not calling her out in front of the kid.
Oh, who am I kidding, ^^^^ that's perfect world stuff...I'd probably crack a joke or ask what was up her ***.
Agreed. Some of those young bucks are being exceptionally disrespectful to their elders.
I just opened the #Hang5AtHilton thread, and was surprised to see my husband's Twitter handle quoted in the first post.
Only read the first page, but not feeling very hopeful on the potential of the thread.
EDIT: Actually, not as bad as I thought. Fairly civil discourse.

While it's always based on the individual, growing up being able to hide behind the anonymity of a message board has created a lot of monsters. I think of some of the jackasses that I grew up around and can only imagine what they would have been like had we grown up with the current technology.
Well, now that I know where you sit for games, I can watch you to see if you are doing your part during the game.
While I agree with your observations regarding the anonymity of the internet, in this case there was an implied jimlad that cmjh knew about. He was poking fun at old folks in the current "fans are great, student section sucks" thread, and I responded to it both there and here.
Or you could ask Rulzzz...who sits two rows in front of us. I don't stand a lot - I'm up & down, but arthritis in my back makes it tough to stand for a whole game. What I lack in height, I do my best to make up for with volume.
edit: wow, impressive - three prepositions in a row in one sentence. Poor grammar, but I should get points for effort.
They would have to call it a game after someone FINALLY got an "H".Check out Cooler's signature. I'd say if she's good enough, it won't be because she didn't want to.
Side note:
Can you imagine the games of HORSE at that house? Give the twins a couple more years to catch up a bit in maturity and that would be a death match!
Blerrgh...the ***holes are everywhere...so there's this new person who does a job I used to do, way back inna day, but he's dumb and a dork. So, his *mentors* who gave him the whitewash and shipped him off to 2nd shift were gracious enough to tell him that if he had any questions, 00clone used to do this, ask him. So derpy mcderperson saunters over every dang night with a rudimentary question for me to answer....and I'm torn, because it's also kind of his mentors' fault for shipping him off without the right info, but he's just so annoying and like making conclusions he doesn't really know and then he gets waaaay down the wrong rabbit hole...
OK, so last night he comes over with a sitchiation, and he's not down the wrong rabbit hole, he is sitting in the field wondering where the rabbit holes are, and not really having any idea where to look. So I ask him all the questions, get him to the root cause of his sitchiation, and send him on his way. He asks if I could send him an e-mail to summarize what I just told him, (unspoken...because he's already getting confused about the clear answer I gave him), and I do.
Tonight, the e-mail that he sent off explaining what happened got taken by other people who do my job and they started resolving the questions I laid out for next steps, but he's confused by them, so hum-da-dum-da-dum, derpy mcderperson comes back over to get more guidance. As I'm reading thru the e-mail that he printed out for me to review (seriously, who the eff prints an e-mail anymore?), I see a line in his e-mail where he said last night...
"I think 00clone and I figured it out"
Are you ******* kidding me? You sat there as I told you how I figured it out, then you were too confused to understand it, and so I had to put it in writing, and then you took my info, put it in your own e-mail and took half the credit?

I certainly don't know the work environment there, was there any input by the floor employees before the change or did they come in and stuff is all changed because "we know how to do your job better than you". If it a employee who usually complains not so much weight to their view, but if they're someone that comes in and gets it done maybe they felt no one would listen unless it went to the top first.
Good news. This generic medication is covered 100%:
Can you still buy this? Man it was terrible back in the day. Shaeffers or Strohs were both way better(and that's not saying much but the price was right.)
